What Causes A Normal Ultrasound Result Despite Having UTI Symptoms?

My adult daughter (age 35) has been fighting a UTI for 6 months. Drs have prescribed multiple antibiotics, but she is plagued with symptoms and is missing work. She has been seen by a urologist (twice) and more antibiotics were ordered. An ultrasound of the bladder revealed nothing. What should she do?
